From Town Criers to Bloggers: How Will Journalism Survive the Internet Age?

There is no place in our Constitutional Republic for interference, and/or subsidy of the press, the internet or any form of public speech. Attempts by governmental offices or agencies to "support" or "strengthen" newspapers or internet outlets, or to subsidize certain "preferred" outlets over others should be an anathema to anyone familiar with, and supportive of, our Constitution. Shut down this exercise immediately.
